At least in GNOME, it's quite easy to lock the panels with gconf-editor - see my other post. KDE supports this in bleeding edge versions, as someone mentioned.

This seems to make the panels completely immutable: that's not what I want. I just want them to not move, but I still want to be able to move things around in the panel and add things to the panel. Maybe I missed it but I didn't see anything that allowed just the movement to be disabled.

There is a panel-movement lockdown feature in Ubuntu 8.10 onwards that is a bit easier to use, which might help: http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/moving-the-locked-top-panel... - it points to this GNOME bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309721
I believe this 'lock panel movement' feature is what you want.
